A quick question about nslookup. Does it use UDP or TCP by default? If it uses both, under what conditins does it use either kind of socket?

Correspondingly, could someone point me to the portion of BIND code, where the incomingg messages from nslookup are accepted, also what kind of socket does BIND listen on, for requests?

Thanks
